Quad delivers instant power, independently adjusting torque at each wheel for precise traction control in all conditions. Whether you’re carving through the mountain switchbacks or crawling over rocky trails, the new Quad was built to be more capable, powerful and, most importantly, more fun to drive.
At the heart of the Gen 2 Quad are four motors, one at each wheel, delivering a combined 1,025 horsepower and 1,198 lb-ft of torque. That means 0-60 mph in as little as 2.5 seconds and ¼ mile in 10.5 seconds.*
Our newest drive unit, featuring two in-house designed and manufactured motors, powers both the front and rear of the Quad-Motor vehicles. The rear drive unit has a larger gear ratio and is built for maximum performance and torque delivery while the front drive unit is optimized for maximizing efficiency at cruising speeds. While operating in Conserve mode, an automatic rear disconnect helps to make AWD performance available almost all of the time and intuitively disengages the rear drive unit when driving demand doesn't require it, helping you maximize range when you need it and performance when you want it.
The new motors are oil-cooled, significantly improving thermal performance during high-torque, low-speed driving such as rock crawling while also improving range efficiency during low-torque, high-speed cruising on highways.
Each motor is individually controlled, giving the vehicle true four-corner torque vectoring for immediate, precise adjustment in traction and balance. Expect next-level performance in every environment: launch control on the pavement, surefooted handling in the rain or snow and precise control on challenging terrain.
Offering an EPA-estimated up to 374 miles of range (and up to 400 miles in Conserve mode), not only is the Gen 2 Quad more powerful and capable, it enables you to go further on road trips.
The Ascend interior ushers in a level of detail and timeless design upgrades for the new Quad. Our premium interior includes quilted seats, extended stitching, cut and sew material on the entire door panels, center console and instrument panel. Throughout the interior, you'll discover plaid detailing, seamlessly extended to the matching plaid floormats, creating a cohesive and distinctive aesthetic. A deep bronze finish on the interior metal is seen across the dash, door panels and speaker grilles, adding a touch of warmth to the cabin. Even the rear of the driver and passenger seat are wrapped with a unique new fabric providing softness and an inviting feel.
Ascend offers three elevated interior color combinations inspired by nature, including Ocean Coast with Driftwood, Black Mountain with Brown Ash Wood and Slate Sky with Walnut Wood.
On the outside, Quad uniquely features Laguna Beach Blue accented brake calipers and badging, subtly signaling its performance pedigree. Look closely at the Quad’s rear and you'll spot Gear Guard with wind-swept hair, a playful and subtle hint at the vehicle's exceptional 0-60 mph acceleration.
No detail is spared on Gen 2 Quad, where you’ll have access to freshly designed wheel choices both in 20" and 22" configurations. Debuting on Quad is the new 22" Sport Burnished Bronze wheel with all-season tire. Looking for more performance? You can opt for the new 22" Super wheel with Ultra High Performance tire. For those looking to go off-road, you have the option to choose between All-Terrain Dark wheels or the new Dune Satin Graphite All-Terrain wheels, both wrapped in a capable 34" all-terrain tire.
Quad offers four different wheel and tire options as standard: 22" Super Sport, 22" Sport Burnished Bronze, 20" All-Terrain Dark, and 20" Dune Satin Graphite All-Terrain.
The new Quad-Motor R1S and R1T also benefit from a suite of significant upgrades like: Dynamic Glass Roof, Rivian Premium Audio, Darkout Package, Air Compressor and reinforced underbody shield as standard on all Quad configurations.
Launch Mode** with Launch Cam: Enable exterior camera recording to automatically capture your Launch Mode adventures. When you replay your launches in the Videos app, you’ll see real-time stats like speed and distance overlays calculated by in-house controls software. You can even export videos to a mobile device via USB port to save and share with friends.
RAD Tuner (exclusively on Quad, coming September): Developed by the Rivian Adventure Department, a team of engineers, software developers and designers who create and test features that push the boundaries of our vehicles.
Rivian drivers will have better control over their vehicle's dynamic behavior. Through intuitive sliders, you can fine-tune ride handling while creating personalized and savable drive modes. Start from scratch or build upon presets like "Rally" or "Sport.”
There are even preset modes that were born from real-world triumphs: Desert Rally mode was meticulously engineered during the 2023 Rebelle Rally, a grueling competition where the R1T made history as the first fully-electric vehicle to ever win. Hill Climb mode was honed at the legendary Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, where in 2024, our R1T conquered the race as the fastest production truck to ever make the ascent.
These iconic competitions served as the ultimate proving grounds, with our engineers leveraging every challenging mile and vertical foot to bring these finely-tuned drive modes to life for our owners. A clear Dynamic Performance scale provides instant feedback, showing exactly how your customizations impact different driving dimensions.
Kick Turn (exclusively on Quad, coming September): Say goodbye to tricky turns on dirt and gravel. Kick Turn makes it easier to steer in tight off-road conditions. It works by controlling the power and tire grip, letting the vehicle spin about its center, even when it's moving. You can now make tighter turns with just a simple button press. When you engage Kick Turn, your R1 Quad smartly adjusts the power to the inside wheels, slowing them down or even reversing them. This precise control over wheel slip ensures your vehicle turns exactly as quickly and smoothly as you intend.
You can use Kick Turn with stability control fully on, reduced or even off. This means you can dial in your experience, from maintaining maximum control to enjoying a more playful turn. Just remember to always use it safely and responsibly—it's all about having fun within your limits.
Starting with model year 2026, every Rivian R1 vehicle will feature native North American Charging Standard (NACS) charge port. This opens the door to Tesla's extensive Supercharger network, offering seamless, fast charging across North America. But we didn't stop there: all Quad-Motor R1s will also include a complimentary CCS DC adapter, empowering you with access to virtually every charging type available. This integration is a testament to our relentless pursuit of a more convenient, flexible and accessible EV ownership experience.

*Actual vehicle capability will depend on selected options and trim. Torque, horsepower and acceleration timing estimates vary based on battery, tire, drive modes, vehicle load and weather. Quarter mile and 0–60 mph timing are based on a configuration with 22" road wheels and tires and requires use of Launch mode. Launch mode should not be used on public roads.
** Launch Mode is designed for use on a closed circuit track in dry road conditions. Do not use Launch Mode on public roadways where traffic or pedestrians are present. It is the driver’s responsibility to drive safely and pay attention to the road. Rivian does not endorse reckless or dangerous driving. Drive with caution.
